One hundred fifty consecutive, first-visit, general medical patients were simply and inexpensively screened by questionnaire, personal inquiry, and physical examination for drug and alcohol abuse. Seventeen (11.3%) currently used psychoactive drugs, excluding alcohol, and ten (6.7%) used drugs or alcohol on a daily basis to the point that the patient considered it an abuse problem. The majority of the drug and alcohol users recognized their problem on a short questionnaire that was part of a medical intake form. Almost all of the recognized abusers of drugs or alcohol subsequently entered treatment of their problem.
通过问卷调查、个人询问和体格检查,对150名连续前来初诊的普通内科患者进行了简单且低成本的药物和酒精滥用筛查。17名患者(11.3%)目前使用精神活性药物(不包括酒精),10名患者(6.7%)每天使用药物或酒精,达到患者认为存在滥用问题的程度。大多数药物和酒精使用者在一份作为医疗入院表格一部分的简短问卷中认识到了自己的问题。几乎所有被确认的药物或酒精滥用者随后都接受了针对其问题的治疗。
